This Chablis is a classic example of the wonders of good unoaked Chardonnay from the famed kimmeridgian soil of this appellation. Bright, intense and vibrant with its joyous classic flintiness, totally dry yet displaying that slight honeyed richness typical of the higher premier cru appellations.
Food Pairing: This exquisite Chablis will be beguiling when paired with shellfish, Burgundian snails, and Gougères with Comté cheese--not to mention magnificent with fish and chips!
Cellaring: Enjoy now and over the next three to five years.
For over 130 years, the Mothe family have been crafting exceptional Chablis wines at Domaine du Colombier. Passed from generation to generation since 1887, it wasn't until 1957 that Guy Mothe began to master the art of vinifying Chablis. Now, Thierry Mothe heads the vinification, carefully perfecting the 100% Chardonnay vineyards.
The Chablis Grand Cru appellation covers just 100 hectares, yielding only 5,500 hectolitres annually—these prized terroirs lie on the right banks of the Serein, in soil enriched with tiny fossil oysters. Grapes are harvested by hand and vinified for 12 months, with 80% aged in stainless steel tanks and 20% in oak barrels (the only wine produced by the estate to see oak aging).
